CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM (Heart)
Across
- 1. - relaxation of the heart muscle
- 4. - small blood vessels where your body exchanges oxygen rich and oxygen poor blood
- 7. - fibers that receive electrical charge form AV node through AV bundle and causes ventricles to contract
- 9. - takes deoxygenated blood towards the heart
- 11. - sends impulses from your Av node to the Purkinje fibers
- 12. - sound made by the semilunar valve closing
- 13. - brings deoxygenated blood from the upper parts of the body to the heart
- 14. -two upper chambers of the heart
- 15. - contraction of the heart muscle
- 18. valve - door between your left atrium and left ventricle
- 19. - prevents backflow of blood
- 20. -contraction of the atria
- 22. -Middle layer of the heart that is responsible for pumping blood
- 23. - takes deoxygenated blood away from the heart
Down
- 2. - largest artery in the body
- 3. -chamber that sends blood to the heart
- 5. - brings deoxygenated blood from the lower parts of the body to the heart
- 6. - type of muscle found in the heart
- 8. - thin part that separates right and left ventricle
- 9. - contraction of the ventricles
- 10. - sound made by the AV valves closing
- 16. - visceral layer of serous pericardium
- 17. - valve that pumps blood from right atrium to left ventricle
- 21. - controls spontaneous generation of impulses
